When launching a new window it comes up as a minimised floating box and does not remember the settings when I change them back by re-sizing the window. This problem does not affect windows explorer views. I have also tryed clearing the StreamsMRU in the registry. Any ideas?
I've asked this question many times and never get a response worth anything. Most people say "resize the window and then click the X to close it and it will remember the settings". Problem is, my computer crashes 3 times a day and I have to keep doing that over and over because it forgets the setting after it crashes. I type in javascript:resizeTo(804,576); in the address bar and that works for me to open the window almost maximized. You can change the 804 and 576 to what ever your screen size is. I have to retype it in every once in a while when IE messes up. It's ridiculous that Microsoft doesn't let you open new windows maximized. You can open new windows full screen, but I don't like using IE full screen. Netscape's one up on them. Someone should be able to figure out a hack to be able to open the window maximized. I wish I was smart enough to figure it out. You'd think someone would have figured something out by now. Anyway, good luck getting it to work.
I had IE 5 open as a postage stamp he he goofy goofy goofy , I wish it would open maximized , Like when I go to "WIndows update" I get this small window, Now who browses in a postage stamp when they have a nice 17 inch monitor
Duh!!!!! Microsoft
I should ask my teenage frined if he could tweak IE

Try resizing the window to the size you want and the use "Ctrl" key while clicking on the "X" (Hard Close).
